I admire John Glenn, but he is also the very picture of a man who compartmentalized his politics from his profession. He bought his seat on the Space Shuttle by coming to the ludicrous defense of the White House and Hillary Clinton during the Amato banking hearings back in the ‘90’s.

I'm pretty sure he bought the seat by blocking Fred Thompson's investigation into the China money. (Glenn had help from some other senator).

Both Glenn (and McCain) should have been booted out of the Senate, if not imprisoned, for corruption in the 1980s S&L mess.
